A form of music that mixes the rebellious nature of punk, with the burlesque debauchery of cabaret. The band that started this phenomenon are called the 'Dresden Dolls' who are a duo made by Brian Viglione and Amanda Palmer; they have enjoyed a small cult following.

One of the most notorious nightclubs in Berlin, Germany during the "decadent" Weimar Republic area of the 1920s. The usual show consisted of short acts, skits, and songs, etc. performed by "amateurs." (i.e, nameless or unknown) In reality the "performers" were almost always mentally or physically handicapped people chosen specifically because they had no actual talent and were presented solely so the audience of tourists and "intellectual" slummers could laugh at them for "entertainment." The diminuative Jewish Master of Ceremonies, Erwin Lowinsky, was the inspiration for the character protrayed famously by Joel Grey in the much toned down stage production, "Cabaret." Also the club was more distantly an inspiration for the equally infamous '70s TV show "The Gong Show."

put out by leather strip. But I've heard it used to describe an all male drunken orgy and sometimes in conjuction with "barebacking"

A genre that the members of Panic! at the Disco made up to describe their music, while talking about genres that newspaper reporters make up about them. (On the DVD from the boxed set)

person 2: No, it's definitely Trip-hop Cabaret Dance Punk
